'''Orc''' appears in the '''Horde''' roster of the pinned Forever preview. This reference summarizes that race’s recorded general racials and class options.<ref name="preview">Chris Baldwin, [https://talentsforever.com/ Talents Forever], [https://talentsforever.com/data.json CC BY 4.0 data export], snapshot 16 September 2026.

! Ability !! Recorded effect
|-
| Blood Fury || A temporary increase to Attack Power and Spell Power.
|-
| Shatter Curse || Removes Curses and Banes, provides a brief period of protection against them, and reduces magical damage taken.
|-
| Axe Specialization || An equipped axe activates a critical-strike benefit applying beyond the weapon attack itself.
|-
| Hardiness || Reduces the duration of stuns.

== Offense and resisting disruption ==
Check whether the equipped weapon activates Axe Specialization, and distinguish removing a Curse from resisting a later one. A broad offensive racial still needs evaluation for the chosen class and activity. This is editorial advice for evaluating the preview, not a ranking of races.

== First character checklist ==
* Choose a supported class from the linked preview list, then read its talent guide.
* Recheck racial tooltips at character creation and in the spellbook when beta is available.
* Record the build and conditions when reporting a change. Starting quests, trainer coordinates, and numerical racial comparisons need their own evidence.
